Pasta Fresca

Offering an entire page of handmade pasta selection, this home-style establishment sure fitted the image of an authentic italian restaurant. Unfortunately its popularity wasn't proven when Dad and i stepped into a relatively empty outlet along Upper East Coast.

Full flexibilty is given for the orders. I got to choose the pasta style i preferred, with my requested amendments instantly obliged.


Al Salmone Capellini ($15.50)

It was smoked salmon, chopped onions, white wine, crushed black pepper in tomato sauce. The capellini came partially submerged in a thin watery tomato cancasse- no doubt a generous portion of both- but i felt dissatisfied with the pasta's clumpy lack of al denteness. Wrong choice made, it seriously felt more like having an overpriced mee suah.


Alla Pastora Spaghetti ($14.20)

Perhaps in contrast with mine, Dad's sauce with olive oil, garlic, chilli, bacon and mushrooms was brimming with flavour. So it was about making right decisions.
